I love that you started with opam, and not hello-world. More language guides should spend more time introducing tooling.

- rawoke083600 5y agoYea exactly this ! A great help here is a "start-project-template" like with svelte (for example), they have RIGHT on the home-page a big-ass block that shows you how to "get and start" the svelte-new-project-template. Coming to OCAML the "tooling" can be confusing and ambiguous. For example you can use ocamlc, dune,ocamlbuilder,esy opam etc. And of course the "few options" for a std lib Core, Batteries etc. I like the "syntax" from the Batteries more to be honest.
